One can only hope....

.... that an idea this good will end up on a Bongo or other such related fat stringers:

(redburst's wicked pic btw)

What are we talking about - a pickup selector switch, or the burst finish?

 

[Psychicpet]

ok, I'll bite...... the burst.

[Psychicpet]

for the record, I don't think it looks like poop.

 

[Big Poppa]

for the record Brian suggested this as the le 2008 color in jan.....I hate it. everybody loves it but me

 

[Psychicpet]

well, then the collective monkey mind meld was thinkin' silver burst earlier this year


seriously though BP, although you're not so hip to it, it does look pretty stunning so thanks for agreeing to at least this one piece!

I agree with BP, there has to be another LE color configuration than that out there for 2008....

That ghost silver or some kind of metallic brown, just my opinion. But silverburst has been done before by a few companies and no one is making a decent silver or brown color these days. I think a metallic rootbeer/brown type of color would look amazing on a luke or Silo, just my opinon though. NO SILVERBURST!!!!!

 

[Psychicpet]

agree to disagree then,


my two main arguments for:

and.......

All I can say about that color is "GO RAIDERS" and I hate the Raiders also.

I'm with you on this one! I didn't want to say it, but since you did, YUCK!!!
Good trying though.

But I love all the others that I've seen in the pics.

 

[MingusBASS]

I dig it.

 

[azzy_wazzy]

I'm not overly keen - but this is a GOOD thing as it then means I'm immune from GAS for a little while

And is it a sparkle finish or just the pics making it look like that? I'm sure the guys in the factory would love a break from sparkles and cleaning out the booth every time!

 

[silverburst]

As much as I love the color (hence my user ID), I'd have to say it is a little too Gibson.

That being said, I'd buy one if it was made.

And sell it again in 2 months when I found something else I couldn't live without.

 

[theosd]

It would look nicer with a more ranged gradient.

 

[Oldtoe]

I am not above begging for six-string Bongo silver.

 

[fortvideo]

That color scheme probably would not go over good here in Bronco's country

It kind of reminds me of the good ol' Rapala minnow:

I do kind of like it (especially the back of the neck and headstock...note to self: find the pic you took). Not sure I'd buy it, though.

 

[Beth]

eeeeehhhh, its "ok"

It already does have some brown in it, on the edge of the burst from silver into black, it's got a brownish tinge to it that is pretty visible on the headstock. No me gusta mucho.

I think we've got more exciting ideas than that.

 

[adouglas]

I think we've got more exciting ideas than that.

Tease.

 

[Big Poppa]

Yeah Dargie and I settled on the color today..it isnt silverburst
